There is a difference of opinion at our house. I know this might come as a shock to some of you, but others will completely understand. When it comes to cucumbers and onions, Ever-Lovin’ likes the combination to be sweet. I, on the other hand, like a more vinegary taste. Sweet Mother of Pearl. I […]
Miss Jane is a good cook who cooks healthy food. For the July 4th celebration, she brought this Summer Squash Couscous with Sultanas, Pistachios, and Mint side dish. It was a hit! People were asking for the recipe, and Miss Jane was more than willing to share. She got the recipe from the Whole Foods […]
Backstory: Excellent Cook Nancy sent me a link to a blog by Bryn Mooth called writes4food.com. Nancy’s cousin had sent the link to this blog to Nancy for us to check out. Understand?? On the day I first looked at Bryn Mooth’s blog, there was a recipe from the Clara Project. As I understand it, […]

(This is the Robert that is married to sweet, petite, always put together Janet) “Would I like some?” Faster than a speeding bullet, my answer was – “YES!” Ever-Lovin and I love, love, love okra and tomatoes.

This blog is brought to you on the recommendation of Ever-Lovin’. While traveling to the ends of the earth doing errands yesterday (Remember the leopard print lunch bag with hot pink trim.), out of the blue says he, “If you haven’t planned your blog for today, you could blog about the Avocado and Mango Salsa […]
It was so good to see Paula at the WOW Reunion. She is a dear friend and wonderful cook. (She has even worked at Williams-Sonoma. I am too jealous for words! It is little consolation that she spent more than she made. Wouldn’t I like to try that.) I love it when she emails […]
When Melanie Ann and Olive came to visit, I needed a side dish to go with the left over BBQ. I thought I would make Chinese cold slaw because I didn’t eat get to eat very much Chinese cold slaw at the Big Jubilee Supper, and I really like Chinese cold slaw. When I got […]
Rumpledethumps – what a name! I love saying it – Rumpledethumps, Rumpledethumps, Rumpledethumps. Isn’t that fun. What you need to know is that this is a British mashed potato, cabbage dish that is topped with cheese. I’m here to tell you it is yummy in the tummy! Becky brought this dish to the Big Jubilee […]
